thief, don't run

Chapter 30 Taoist Temple

"what's the situation?"

Someone in the inn who knew the situation explained: "It's just that the door is evil. Several people have died in Baiyun Temple this month. Without exception, they were all hanged. It seems that they are in the same guest room. Someone said There is a monster, hey, it’s late at night, you say..."

The words are not big or small, but they can be heard clearly. There are not a few people who know the inside story, and the more they talk, the more mysterious they are. From monsters to female ghosts, there are other curses from the cult...

Rong Rong was full of interest, put down his chopsticks and wanted to run out, but was tripped and staggered, immediately turned his head and said in displeasure: "Monster, what do you want!"

"Sorry, my feet are slippery." Chu Yan drank tea indifferently.

"I believe you have ghosts!"

There was arguing here, Zhong Liyun tilted his head and asked, "Axue, shall we go and have a look?"

"Don't go." An Lingxue held the chopsticks, "This matter is investigated by the government itself, and has nothing to do with us. Let's rest for one night and start tomorrow."

Zhong Liyun didn't speak, there was nothing to do, Chu Yan turned his head to look at her, "Here."

Rong Rong was dejected, patted her buttocks and sat back on her seat, still muttering, "That's so boring, I finally came down and said..."

After eating, they each went back to their own rooms. Although Rongrong was full of energy, she was still tired. After a while, she said that she wanted to take a bath and go to bed, and the others did their own thing.

After nightfall, An Lingxue was lying on the bed alone, but she was dressed neatly, listening to the movement next door, seeing the moonlight outside climbing up the curtain from the foot of the bed, she got out of bed, put on her shoes, and got up.

Glancing outside the door, after confirming that there was no one around, he walked back to the window, opened the window, and prepared to go out.

She was still a little curious, but there was nothing she could do about it, it was due to her profession.

"Earlier than I thought."

As soon as the window opened, Zhong Liyun jumped in, facing the moonlight, his clothes fluttering.

"you……"

"I know you're dishonest," Zhong Liyun shook his head helplessly, "If there's any fun that you don't join in, you just like to meddle in other people's business."

An Lingxue looked at her, "What are you doing here?"

"Wait for you," Zhong Liyun moved sideways, "I know that you must care about Baiyun Temple, and you also know that you don't want the two of them to join in the fun and get in danger, and you also know that you will definitely go to investigate at night. "

It's okay for her to see through her mind, but——

An Lingxue glanced out the window. Their rooms are all on the second floor, and there is no place to hide their bodies outside, "I'm not asking you this, since you know, why don't you just come in and look for me instead of sneaking outside Hidden, just to scare me."

"How come?" Zhong Liyun did not explain, "Speaking so much, can you go or not?"

Of course, An Lingxue smiled, grabbed her sleeve and ran away.

"Hey……"

I had inquired about the place of Baiyun Temple in advance, although it was outside the city, but with their lightness kung fu, it took only a quarter of an hour to arrive.

Stopping on the outer wall of the Taoist temple, Zhongliyun's heartbeat was still beating, and he panted, "Okay, Axue, the lightness kungfu is good." Suddenly exerting force, he pulled her and ran away without any precautions, and she almost died Can't keep up.

As a result, Zhong Liyun regretted that he shouldn't have taught her lightness kung fu.

What a disciple of the church, the master starved to death.

"Hey, what do you think about this?" An Lingxue asked, rubbing her arm.

"Stand and watch." Zhongliyun replied seriously.

An Lingxue looked at her, after a while.

"Hey, let go, let go, I said, I said..." Zhong Liyun was pinched by her waist, and felt pain for a while, remembering that he was in someone else's place, so he couldn't speak loudly, so he had to suppress his voice and beg for mercy.

Only then did An Lingxue let go of her hand and snorted.

Ashue is really getting more and more presumptuous.Zhong Liyun pulled her to squat down, and said: "During the day, I still heard some people say that the government here is not free, and things are not so mysterious."

An Lingxue leaned against her and listened carefully.

"First of all, the Baiyun Temple is said to be a Taoist temple, but all of them are Kun Dao of the Quanzhen School, that is, Taoist nuns. On weekdays, there are also some people who visit or do some rituals. Most of them are daily cleansing, which is no different from ordinary Taoist temples. The strange thing is that since a few years ago, people hanged here from time to time, most of them committed suicide. After the government came to check, there was nothing to say, and the matter was just like this."

An Lingxue doubted, "If that's the case, then there won't be rumors about monsters."

"Well," Zhong Liyun nodded, "More than that, it is said that in the past few months, there have been a sudden increase in the number of dead people, and the government has not given a convincing explanation, and there are people who say that in the Baiyun Temple, there will be people who die every night. There was a strange sound, and the theory of monsters became popular."

A gust of night wind blew, An Lingxue rubbed her arms, felt a little cold, and frowned, "Then what's going on today?"

Zhong Liyun sniffed, glanced at her, pointed to a brightly lit place and said, "I don't know what happened today, but the dead girl is there, do you want to go and see?"

After hesitating for a moment, An Lingxue nodded.

She was actually a little scared, after all, she was a dead person.But curiosity overcame her fear, and she was about to get up when Zhong Liyun held her hand, and the warmth spread to her heart through his palm. An Lingxue turned her head to look at her, and the man was smiling again, "Are you scared again? Follow me."

He was not serious again, and wanted to roll his eyes before shaking her hand.

The result is still held back.

"I'm afraid you'll get lost, so I'll take you there." Now she can say such nonsense without blushing.

Zhong Liyun laughed, "Okay, take me there."

The person just died, and he hasn't been sent to Yizhuang yet, so he will stop here for a day first, and after the inspection tomorrow, he should be sent away.An Lingxue went out to do private business. She has an official position, so it's not easy for her to meddle in the affairs of other counties. It's better not to reveal her identity and investigate secretly.

The two led them to the door, looked at each other, and pushed the door open together.

The room is brightly lit, and it should be that the people in the audience lit candles to comfort the dead.It stands to reason that after the case was reported to the government, the corpses that were not sent to Yizhuang should be guarded by someone.

After thinking about it for a while, I realized that it is probably because the Baiyun Temple is not uncommon for dead people, so there is no one guarding it.

This is convenient for them.

What was parked on the bamboo mat was a corpse, now covered with a layer of white cloth, only a protruding figure could be seen, with the candlelight shining on it, it was quiet.

His palms were sweating a little, Zhong Liyun noticed it, and held her hand even tighter.

Immediately relieved, he stretched out his hand to uncover the white cloth.

But Zhong Liyun stopped her halfway, pressed her hand, and lifted the white cloth.

Because he was hanged, his face was bruised and swollen, his eyeballs were protruding, the tip of his tongue was exposed, and his pale neck had obvious traces of rope pressure, which was pepper red.

Zhong Liyun squeezed her palm, and then went to check the deceased's belongings, which should have been disposed of beforehand, but Zhong Liyun shook his head at her, but didn't find out.

To be honest, when An Lingxue was in Shangluo County, she also participated in large and small cases, but most of them were arresting criminals. As for the examination of corpses, she was not familiar with the coroner and the coroner. As for Zhongliyun, she was familiar with With medical skills, I think I probably understand more than her.

"Is there something wrong?" An Lingxue asked her.

Zhong Liyun covered the white cloth again, closed his eyes and bowed his head, and after a moment of silence, he said: "From the perspective of this corpse, there is nothing wrong with it. Generally speaking, it can only be judged as hanging himself."

"But..." Before he finished speaking, An Lingxue glanced casually, and saw that the feet of the female corpse seemed to move.

In an instant, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and the hairs on his back were about to stand up.

"Fear not, it's the wind."

Zhongliyun's comfort is always timely.But after this encounter, An Lingxue couldn't stay any longer, so she hurriedly dragged Zhong Liyun out.

After going outside and walking a long way, he was relieved and at the same time regretted that she shouldn't meddle in this business.After all, if there is something strange, what does it have to do with her?

"It seems that there is nothing to see today. Let's come back tomorrow." Zhong Liyun looked around, took her hand, tapped his toes, and was about to leave.

"Eh?" An Lingxue looked along. Although the Taoist temple is small, there are night watchmen. Fortunately, Zhong Liyun reacted quickly and took her to a roof in advance.

An Lingxue thought to herself, that is indeed the case, but if she comes back tomorrow, she may not be able to find out anything, so it is better to ignore this matter and go directly on the road.But there is confusion in my heart, and it is really uncomfortable if I don't solve it.

"I thought, I might know something."

"Eh?" Zhong Liyun spoke surprisingly again, An Lingxue hurriedly turned to look at her, wanting an explanation, why did she understand what was going on after such a short while?

"Look." Zhong Liyun squatted in one place, looked sideways at her, and pointed down.

At some point, the tiles on the roof were uncovered. From this point, one can get a glimpse of the inner room.

"Uh... ah... you are... so, to her?"

"Huh...huh...does it matter...?"

"You really are... ah... Take it easy!"

"Hehe...you like...don't you? Besides, I also know..."

"..."

Really blind!

If there was no light in the room, they would not be able to see so clearly, but the room was lit with wax, and the candles were dimly lit, so they would not be unable to see clearly, and the moonlight shining from the roof would not attract the attention of the people in the room.

Didn't it mean that people from the Quanzhen sect are not allowed to marry?The canon ruled against drinking, sex and wealth, but there are still people in this audience who act openly and aboveboard, and... all, are women... The intensity is also so bloody.

An Lingxue's face was flushed, she turned her head to see that Zhong Liyun was still staring blankly at the two of Yun Yu below, a burst of unexplainable anger erupted, and she was about to leave.

I don't know if the movement of them leaving has disturbed the people below.

An Lingxue's whole body was dry and hot, so she knew that Zhong Liyun was not serious, and it was fine in normal times, but how could she peek at others... Really!Does this person know how to be ashamed?

"Axue, Axue..." Zhong Liyun was being dragged by her, almost unable to keep up with her steps, and told her to ignore her, he had no choice but to look at her red ears, and he knew what she was ashamed of.

This can't be blamed on her, she didn't know beforehand, but she had never seen it with her own eyes, so she was a little curious, and honestly, she was also shy!

The point is that now Ah Xue must think that she is shameless again, and the little favor she finally got can't be overthrown again.

Fortunately, she has a way of smoothing hair.

"Axue, slow down, listen to me..." Zhong Liyun adjusted his breath, tried to keep up with her steps, and finally stood shoulder to shoulder with her, explaining: "Axue, listen to me, that female corpse is really with her." Baiyun Temple has something to do with it."

Suddenly stopped, An Lingxue turned her head, "What do you mean?"
